Satellite

New satellite images show Iskander ballistic missile units conducting drills within range of the border.

Roscosmos will try to regain control of the satellite Monday.

"Boats and planes can't go everywhere," one scientist said. Satellites on the other hand...

Stumbling home by the flickering glow of streetlamps could become a thing of the past if one Chinese company has its way.

The probe will use gravity like a slingshot on its seven-year voyage to Mercury.

A particular horror in several areas in and around Palu was liquefaction, which happens when soil shaken by an earthquake behaves like a liquid.

The satellite was successfully launched from California's Vandenberg Air Force Base.

To the sound of applause, the rocket launched from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida.

This "masterpiece of engineering" could transform our understanding of storms.

Beset by spiralling costs and more than a decade of delays, the satellite has finally launched.

Roscosmos has become the subject of ridicule after budget cuts and high-profile setbacks.

GOES-17 was launched in March, but before its official operations had even begun it suffered a serious malfunction.

A new 38 North report shows the apparent dismantling of the Sohae Satellite Launching Station, something it calls "a significant confidence-building measure."

The cause of the fire is unknown, and it started last week.

Ash from the eruption of the Fuego volcano rained down on the surrounding area, while rapid pyroclastic flows rushed through nearby towns. 

China also has its sights set on asteroids, Mars and the Jupiter system.

"We see a distinctive pattern of the wet land areas of the world getting wetter...and the dry areas in between getting dryer."

Satellite imagery is helping scientists track fissures and gas emissions during the eruption.

They were created using data from nearly 1.7 billion stars.

Satellites have collided only four times in the past 30 years, making it difficult to form generalizations about cause.

A new company, EarthNow, expects to deliver satellite imagery and real-time video. Could your house be surveilled?

At the time the picture was taken, the spacecraft, which is expected to reenter the atmosphere on April 1, was about 137 miles above the surface and travelling at speeds of around 17,400 miles per hour.

Other early satellites—such as Sputnik 1, the first satellite to leave Earth in 1957, and Explorer 1, the first US satellite—have long since re-entered the atmosphere and burnt up.

"Boy, what an advance it would be to be able to see the world in a snapshot."

Starlink will provide unfettered, low-cost internet, he says.

IMAGE was launched the same year as the Nokia 3310 and the Sony Playstation 2.

The space agency is trying to reconnect with its lost spacecraft.

Rocket Lab's Still Testing rocket successfully reached orbit and deployed Earth-tracking satellites.

The telescope itself is just two inches across; the planet is seven times the size of Jupiter.

It's unclear what exactly happened to the classified satellite.
